Race Report (truncated)

1:42:38!

More results and pictures to come once I finish my mimosa(s) and eat a full wedge of brie.

But seriously, I had a nice race and finished much faster than I had anticipated. It was a good race and I was able to use my training and stick to my plan and not have too much get in my way. Jen and I both placed in the top 3 in our age groups and got winner's beer mugs. I will let her fill you in on her race, but I think we both had a great time. Zach gets special spectator awards and serious kudos go to him for standing in the cold for 2 hours, cheering us on and taking tons of pictures.

I'll do a quick word explosion on my initial thoughts and idea which I will follow up on later:

Goals For The Week (11/3/08)

3. Continue to wake up at the same time as last week (become a morning person?) (As of Wed I'm 3 outta 3) 11/9 update - this was really hard but I did manage to wake up relatively early... Once I really get into my running I am going to make an effort to wake up at 6 a.m. and get my runs done before work. There is really no reason not to. Especially since I will have guests and visitors over the next month that will require my time and attention.

4. Go to yoga (I'll say once, but go for twice) 11/9 update - I did go once, so this is DONE!
